Nested if or case statement

[niluki]

Hi,

Could you tell me how a nested if or a case statement could be programmed in E-Views please?

I want the following code to work: (But it doesnt :( )

if %name="UNEMPLOYMENT" then %vars="UP"
elseif %name="MIG" then %vars="MG"
elseif %name="DTV" then %vars="DT"
else %vars=%name
endif

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

We don't have an elseif, unfortunately.

Code: Select all

if %name="UNEMPLOYMENT" then %vars="UP" else if %name="MIG" then %vars="MG" else if %name="DTV" then %vars="DT" else %vars=%name endif endif endif
